Structural and functional insights into DNA-end processing by the archaeal HerA helicase-NurA nuclease complex.

abstract：:An R-loop is a DNA:RNA hybrid formed during transcription when a DNA duplex is invaded by a nascent RNA transcript. R-loops accumulate in nucleoli during RNA polymerase I (RNAP I) transcription. Here, we report that mammalian RNase H1 enriches in nucleoli and co-localizes with R-loops in cultured human cells. Co-migra...
